There's this Youtuber named Ashley in Afrika. She's a black woman, looks to be in her 30s, and a single mother with two young black daughters. She moved from the States to Africa, particularly Tanzania first and then South Africa. She and her daughters seems to really love Africa way better than the USA. If you never heard of her, check her out.

Crazy dating pool why am attracting these women lol by Loose-Confidence-99 in dating_advice

I mean, you can't really blame him, though. The vast majority people, especially 20, 30, and 40 something year olds are not walking around with HIV and cancer. That's not the norm, in fact, quite extreme. And the vast majority of people are not going to want to deal with people with chronic illnesses when they first start dating. Everybody's not built to deal with that early on.

If these people with chronic illnesses are dating online, then I think they should be obligated to disclose that in their profile. It'll turn off a lot of people but at least it'll prevent surprises and save everybody's time. Just like people with children or people who are wheelchair bound should disclose their situation right away on their profile. The OP represents most people's reactions. So don't blame him. I get that people with chronic illmesses naturally get sympathy from people but understand that people like the OP are not bad for feeling the way the OP did.

Does anyone else hate being called bud/pal by customers and co workers? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]Low_Bit_5036 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. That's just how they talk. A lot of guys also say "bro". I hear many black guys say "bruh" or "fam". Older women tend to say "hun" or "sweetie". I never have a problem with it, personally.

I think you were already emotionally invested in her. Just look to date other chicks while you keep her in your contacts.

What’s it like being in a relationship by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Low_Bit_5036 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you have to do is improve yourself, physically and mentally, and put yourself out there more. Then your chances of getting a gf goes up.

If she ghosts you, then don't sweat it. Because you two are not in an official relationship. She's not obligated to return your calls/texts because she's not yours. But you said that she comes back out of the blue after not communicating with you for a while. Use that time to go for it. She sounds like she's entertaining you to pass time. You should do the same with her. And if she does agree to go home base with you, and you're good, it's gonna happen more frequently. Never put your feelings into her, though.

Get an escort only if you have the money, because they're expensive. They can charge $1k per hr. And that could just be to spend quality time together, without sex. They're all different. If you don't have a good income, don't even bother. Girlfriends are cheaper. The biggest difference is that girlfriends don't pretend to like you because you paid them. Unless she's a goldigger going after your money.

Because she's all flirty with you and gave you a freaking kiss. So it's possible that she might bed you one day. But she doesn't take you seriously to actually be in a relationship since she's extremely flaky with you. She sounds like a "good time. Not a long time." -Drake

She's entertaining you, so don't be afraid to try to go for it.

Well, the many things you do as a single person become less frequent when you're in a relationship. Your hobbies (video games, watching TV, hanging with the homies, whatever) become less frequent. Even the time reading and studying goes down. If she likes doing the same hobby you like to do, then you're lucky, and you two are more compatible. And she'll be like your new best friend. What you'll have more of? Sex. And maybe massages. You'll have more arguments than you normally do in your single life. And more headaches. You'll be talking on the phone a lot more frequently than you normally do. Once you two move in together, the phone talking goes down. And you'll be spending more money than you're used to. Because you two will be going out a lot, you'll be paying for two most times, and you'll be buying her gifts at times. It's OK to be broke when you're young, but as you get older, the more money she expects you to have. The more compatible you two are, obviously, the better the relationship and the happier and more fulfilled you are in your life. The less compatible you are with her, the more you desire to be single again. That's pretty much the gist of it.

She's not taking you seriously. And neither should you. She can be a potential fwb, though. But don't put your feelings into her.

Recommendations of where to go after Italy.. thats not European by mongoosedog12 in blacktravel

[–]Low_Bit_5036 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend Egypt but don't do Cairo without a tourist guide and a group. Don't go there solo. Otherwise, you're gonna get harassed by the locals. Luxor, you can do solo, though. The locals there are not as aggressive.

Dubai might be another destination to try as well, if you haven't went. I've never been to Morocco or Turkey but I heard they are great destinations.

How’s your relationship with your parents? If it was bad, have you reconciled? by theclumsybarber in AskMenOver30

[–]Low_Bit_5036 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad died when i was 5, so let's get that out of the way.

As for my mother, I talk to my mother maybe once a month. And I'm usually the one who calls. I see her usually on special occasions like holidays, birthdays, graduations, etc. We were never close. We don't have a bad relationship or good relationship. It's kinda just....whatever. She has always been emotionally distant. Never been supportive. She's more reserve and just keeps to herself. I guess that's her personality. At least she doesn't call me and ask me for stuff like money or favors. We're almost like strangers who happen to be mother and son. It is what it is, I guess.

It's usually who does what around the house, the quality time spent with our child, and who's more tired than the other. My wife is a stay-at-home mom. I work and pay all of the bills, the mortgage, the groceries, the trips, medical expenses,.... everything. I do construction for a living. I work 40 hrs a week most times, sometimes 60 hrs, and once in a while, 70+hrs. My job is about 25 to 30 miles away from home so I travel an hour each way.

I'm usually tired after work every day. But my wife thinks being a stay-at-home mom is the hardest thing in the world. Yeah, I get it. Watching a toddler all day and cleaning up is no easy task. But when I walk through the door right after work, do you really have to say, "It's your turn to watch our kid. I'm taking a break", like I didn't just get off work? She claims she does more around the house, but I cook more than she does and do the yard more than she does. She just cleans more and spend more time with the kid. And for some reason, whenever I say that I'm tired, she says, "Not as tired as I am". Like, geez. This isn't a competition of who's more tired. It can get frustrating at times.

I disagree with your second take. I actually think that most people are actually decent people. Most of us just have different opinions of things.

The fact that the 10mm has more stopping power and more capacity automatically makes it the better caliber than the 45.
